Indian police probe woman for using ‘fake documents’ to visit Pakistani husband

Nagma allegedly befriended Babar Bashir Ahmed from Abbottabad on Facebook in 2021, married online in February 2024

Indian authorities in Maharashtra's Thane are investigating a woman for allegedly using fake documents, including a false name and Aadhaar card, to obtain a Pakistani visa.

The woman, identified as Nagma Noor Maksood Ali, reportedly used the alias Sanam Khan Rukh.

Nagma allegedly befriended Babar Bashir Ahmed from Abbottabad on Facebook in 2021. After developing a relationship, they married online in February 2024.

She later applied for a Pakistani visa using the alias.

Nagma returned to India on July 17, prompting suspicion over her documents. Her mother disclosed that Nagma had changed her name and her children’s names after separating from her husband in 2015.

While Nagma has not been detained or arrested, police have launched an investigation due to the suspicious identity details.

Last year in December, Javeria Khanum, a Pakistani woman, crossed the Attari-Wagah border into India to marry her fiancé, Sameer Khan, a resident of Kolkata.

Javeria arrived with a 45-day visa and was greeted with traditional celebrations, including music and drums.

Earlier in May, Sanjugata Kumari, a Pakistani banker, married Mahendra Kumar, an Indian lawyer, in Sukkur, Pakistan. Their relationship began in 2019 through Instagram, but they faced numerous obstacles, including multiple visa rejections and the challenges posed by political tensions between their countries.

After meeting in Dubai in 2022 and exchanging rings, they finally tied the knot after a long-distance relationship
